Chapter 68 The simpler, the better Seventeen minutes later.
Tiger Lee arrived at the slum; he was sweating profoundly.
He was late! King of Horizon asked him to arrive within 15 minutes, so he was speeding all the way and ran the red lights. His car speed even reached 200 miles an hour.
However, it took him a few minutes to buy pen and papers, so even if he drove his car fast, he arrived there seventeen minutes later.
He was two minutes late...
What a big mistake he made! ‘When he was in Billionaire, King of Horizon killed his boss Dracul in the blink of an eye with just one breath. Thinking of this, cold shivers ran down his back.
“I'm two minutes late. It's all my fault! Your Highness, please forgive me!”
Tiger Lee got out of his car, rushed over to John and fell down on his knees. He bowed his head deeply, sweat dripping down from his forehead. Soon there was a pool of water on the ground.
Everyone present could see how scared he was now.
Tom and Moise, who were lying beside and wailing, was stunned by this scene.
They couldn't believe their ears: Tiger Lee just called John ‘your Highness"? They cast a cursory glance at John.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the US, there was only one person who was qualified to be called ‘your Highness’: it was the King of Horizon.
Was the young man in front of them the King of Horizon? Tiger Lee's guilty expression confirmed their guess.
In an instant Tom and Moise felt their hearts were seized by an invisible
hand.
How could this ridiculous thing happen on them? They were just some humble gangsters, but they stirred up trouble in front of the King of Horizon! Life was so dramatic.
Tiger Lee was still on his knees.
John stared at him and said in a calm voice, “Forget it. Two minutes are not a big deal. Get up.” “Thank you for your generosity, your Highness!” It was a narrow escape. Tiger Lee kowtowed many times before he stood up. Then he recognized Moise who lay there as numb as a chicken. He rushed toward him and stamped on his face.
“You son of bitch! How dare you offend the King of Horizon! ‘You want to die?” He clenched his fists in anger, pressing his foot down sharply on Moise’s face.
Only this could ease his rage.
What irritated him was not that Moise had offended the King of Horizon. He didn’t give a shit about Moise’s situation. He was angry that this stupid Moise almost dragged him into marsh! “You asked the King of Horizon to forgive you for my sake! Ha! Are you insane? How could | compare with his Highness! You get me into big trouble!” Tiger Lee cursed Moise inwardly.
He was filled with fear and anger now.
At this time, John coughed and said, “You hit the wrong person.” “What?” Tiger Lee turned around in shock.
Moise was about to cry. He used his last bit of strength to point to Tom beside him and said, “He started it..." Then he fainted.
“What the fuck! It's you!” Tiger Lee was kind of embarrassed that he hit the wrong
person. What else could he do? Beating Tom! In this way, Tom was knocked unconscious by him too.
Then Tiger Lee came over to John with an obsequious face, “What do you think, your Highness?" John nodded: “I don’t want to see Tom in New York again. In addition, there lives a mother and her daughter.
Send someone to protect them. Do it secretly. Don't disturb their lives.” “Got it, your Highness!” Then Tiger Lee called several men to drag Moise and Tom away. As for how to deal with them, it had nothing.
to do with John.
“Madam, everything is done. That bastard will never come to you again.” John got in the house.
“Thank you so much Doctor Lopez! You saved us again. We really don’t know how to repay your kindness.” The woman knelt on the ground with tears streaming down her face.
John hurried to help her up and said with a smile, “No thanks.
It's just a lift of the finger. My elder sister was slandered in Feazer Medical Clinic that day, it was you who stood out to prove her innocence.” “Actually we didn't help a lot.” ‘How could it be? My sister and | really appreciate your kindness.” John beamed and comforted the woman. Then he looked at Anny, rubbed her face and said, “I haven't given you a gift yet since we know each other for so many days!” ‘Please don't say that, Doctor Lopez. You help me get rid of my cold-blooded husband. How can we accept your gifts.” The woman quickly said.
Anny also said: “Big brother has been nice to me. | like big brother.” “Don’t you worry, Madam, it's not a costly gift. It's just a token of my gratitude.” John knew that simple and amicable as the woman was, she
wouldn't accept his gift. So he asked Tiger Lee to buy a pen and papers. Then he painted a picture on the spot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the picture, there was a sea of flowers under the bright sun.
Alittle girl was running happily along a path.
This girl was what Anny would look like when she grew up.
John depicted her appearance in his heart.
He spent as many efforts on this painting as on the Blooming Rose he had gave to Alice.
The woman exclaimed, “What a beautiful painting! You're really excellent in it, Doc. Lopez!” Although the woman wasn't a connoisseur, she knew how to distinguish good paintings from bad. Doc. Lopez's painting was vivid. The sunlight on the picture seemed to be shedding on her heart.
She felt warm.
She could feel a sense of innocence from it.
All the unhappiness in life seemed to vanish at this moment.
After the painting was done, John smiled and said to Anny, “The name of this painting is ‘Happy Anny’. It's a gift for you.
Do you like it?” “Yes, | like it very much! | feel so happy, big brother.” Anny clapped her hands.
John's face was lit up too.
“Happy Anny’.
It was a childish name. The real kindness and innocence in the world had never been as complicated as people imagined, The simpler, the better.
Wasn't it?
